Jugendstil 1896: German Art Nouveau Illustrations Vol. 1
Jugendstil 1896: German Art Nouveau Illustrations Vol. 1
By Thomas Negovan
Jugendstil 1896: German Art Nouveau Illustrations Vol. 1 features a selection of artworks from the first year of the magazine Jugend - the namesake of the jugendstil movement. Over seventy rare and fantastic illustrations, as well as German Art Nouveau vignettes and framing elements, are included in this volume. These works are often mystical in nature, sometimes whimsical, other times eccentric– but always beautiful and fascinating.
To ensure maximum clarity and detail, all of the images in this book are captured directly from original books and magazines in the Century Guild collection using high-resolution photography and professional grade scans. The illustrations are supported with narrative about the period, as well as information about the artists and images; in many cases, we've been able to thoroughly research and identify artists often not attributed and identify historical background that had been previously unpublished.
